  • Appendix A. Installation and Troubleshooting
    The Almagest A-1 Appendix A. Installation and Troubleshooting Authors: Joseph T. Buck Christopher Hylands Alan Kamas Other Contributors: Stephen Edwards Edward A. Lee Kennard White A.1 Introduction This appendix consists of the following sections: • “Obtaining Ptolemy” on page A-1 discusses how to obtain Ptolemy. • “Ptolemy mailing lists and the Ptolemy newsgroup” on page A-2, discusses various forums for discussion about Ptolemy. • “Installation” on page A-3 discusses how to install Ptolemy. • “Troubleshooting” on page A-15 discusses how to find and fix problems in Ptolemy. • “Known bugs” on page A-32 lists known problems in Ptolemy. • “Additional resources” on page A-39 discusses other resources. A.2 Obtaining Ptolemy Ptolemy binaries are currently available for the following architectures: HP running HPUX10.20, Sun 4 (Sparc) running Solaris2.5.1,. In addition, Ptolemy has been compiled on SunOS4.x HPUX9.x, Linux RedHat 5.0, NetBSD_i386, IBM RS/6000 AIX4.x, SGI Irix6.x and the DEC Alpha Digital Unix 4 platforms. These additional platforms are not supported in- house and thus these ports are not tested and may not be complete. Installing the full system requires about 150 Megabytes of disk space (more if you optionally remake). The demonstration version of Ptolemy, “Ptiny,” only requires 12 Mega- bytes of disk space. All versions requires at least 8 Megabytes of physical memory. For the latest information on Ptolemy, get the Frequently Asked Questions list.
